Jómfrúin stands for the best in Danish smørrebrød. An unbroken tradition of quality and Danish culinary culture for the past 100 years. Essentially it’s an open-faced sandwich usually featuring rye sourdough bread. Smørrebrød presents different combinations of seafood, meat, vegetables and condiments, and is typically enjoyed with a cold beer and schnapps (aquavit).
